Ashley Tisdale Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Ah, kiss the girl
Kiss the girl

There you see her
Sitting there across the way
She don't got a lot to say
But there's something about her
And you don't know why
But you're dying to try
You wanna kiss girl

Yes, you want her
Look at her, you know you do
It's possible she wants you too
There's one way to ask her
It don't take a word, not a single word
Go on and kiss the girl (kiss the girl)

Sha-la-la-la-la-la
My, oh my
Looks like the boy's too shy
Ain't gonna kiss the girl
Sha-la-la-la-la-la
Ain't that sad
It's such a shame, too bad
You're gonna miss the girl
Go on and kiss the girl (kiss the girl)

Now's your moment
Floating in a blue lagoon
Boy, you better do it soon
No time will be better
She don't say a word
And she won't say a word
Until you kiss the girl (kiss the girl)

Sha-la-la-la-la-la
My, oh my
Looks like the boy's too shy
Ain't gonna kiss the girl
Sha-la-la-la-la-la
Ain't that sad
It's such a shame, too bad
You're gonna miss the girl
Sha-la-la-la-la-la
Don't be scared
You better be prepared
Go on and kiss the girl
Sha-la-la-la-la-la
Don't stop now
Don't try to hide it
How you wanna kiss the girl
Go on and kiss the girl (kiss the girl)

Ooh, ooh
Kiss the girl, ah
Kiss the girl
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
Go on and kiss the girl (kiss the girl)
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
Go on and kiss the girl

Sha-la-la-la-la-la
My, oh my
Looks like the boy's too shy
Ain't gonna kiss the girl
Sha-la-la-la-la-la
Ain't that sad
It's such a shame, too bad
You're gonna miss the girl

La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
Go on and kiss the girl
Go on and kiss that girl
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
Go on and kiss the girl
Go on and kiss the girl




Kiss the girl (kiss the girl)
Go on and kiss the girl

Overall Meaning

The song ''Kiss the Girl'' by Ashley Tisdale is a cover of the original song from Disney's "The Little Mermaid." The song tells a story of a boy who is sitting across from a girl and wants to kiss her. He feels a strong connection with her but is too shy to make a move. However, there is a sense of urgency in the lyrics as the opportunity to kiss her may not come again. The song encourages the boy to stop being scared and to go ahead and kiss the girl since she won't speak until he does.


The lyrics in the chorus, "Sha-la-la-la-la-la, my, oh my, looks like the boy's too shy. Ain't gonna kiss the girl. Sha-la-la-la-la-la, ain't that sad, it's such a shame, too bad, you're gonna miss the girl" repeatedly emphasize the importance of seizing the moment and the regret one would feel for not taking the chance. The song's tone is playful and upbeat, with a catchy melody that captures the joy and thrill of young love.
